Version History

DEL MP3 Karaoke ...the beginning.
My nickname is Rick.

Being already a guitar player for a few years, I discovered the karaoke, searching for a way that people could accompany me while playing my guitar in little jam sessions night.

Soon I found 2 downsides to the karaoke softwares I found on the web.

  • A lot of work, if I wanted to create the synchronization from a new midi and text file.
  • When I wanted to run these karaoke softwares on my laptop, the sound quality was very poor (due to the type of sound card found on laptops).

Knowing that the .mp3 format doesn't realy needs a good sound card to output a good quality sound, witch is not the case of the .mid format, I started searching for an MP3 karaoke software. After hours seaching the web and trying the softwares I found, I concluded that no software met my needs. Being a software-analyzer for a big energy company, I decided to make the software for my enjoyment. And that's how DEL MP3 Karaoke software started.

A software who let's generate karaoke .kok files quickly and easily from MP3 files or other music files format...

Allows you to record your voice over your favorite music, and to save the whole in a file .mp3. Share your song interpretations with others. With this module it's also possible to convert to .mp3 format, all that your PC can play. BladeEnc allows encoding to .mp3 all that DMK will get as music and the DMK recorder gets all that you hear!

The software was again improved by the support of non standard .kar or.mid formats. Indeed, after extensive research, the algorithm was modified, allowing the interpretation of the lyrics of some to .kar and .mid that were incompatible so far.

Full screen option to further increase your visual pleasure while reading the lyrics in the karaoke window.

Ability to import a mid or kar in our editor, make the desired modifications, in the same way that to usually do it you with DMK, then export the whole re-synchronized .mid (with words) or .kar.

A mixing console of MIDI instruments, for the mid or kar formats. Enables you to play your songs by personalizing the instruments you hear. An example of use: a guitarist who accompanies the song without there an audible guitar on the mid or kar. You can do this easily by muting one of the tracks of the .mid via the mixing console.
